| Résumé : |
In Cuba, eighty-four days ago, old Santiago returns empty-handed, his nets desperately empty. Chance has deserted it for a long time. At the dawn of the ninety-fifth day, his young friend Manolin provides him with two beautiful fresh sardines to bait the fish, and wishes him good luck by watching him go aboard his little boat. Today, Santiago feels that fortune returns to him. And indeed, a fish comes to bite the hook. It is a beautiful and gigantic marlin. Then begins the fiercest duels.
Combat of man and nature, novel of courage and hope, The old man and the sea is one of the greatest books of American literature.
This new translation seeks to restore the slow, solemn, almost uncluttered and subtly crafted prose in which Hemingway sings the old man's adventure, thus giving it back its heroic and tragic dimension. |
